Smart City

Enabling Smart City Applications Beyond the Reach of Wires

As cities grow and diversify, the infrastructure needs to keep pace with the needs of their citizens. The term Smart Cities, describes a technology revolution that offers better city management at lower cost to even the smallest municipality.

Based on the intelligent use of cameras, sensors and control systems, smart city technology can deliver better traffic management, safer streets, city-wide asset management and increase the contact between citizens and government.

The communication network is the foundation needed to interconnect the vital systems and services and there is often a need to extend the reach of these networks to every street corner. Faced with diminishing budgets, city planners need to find creative ways to grow the network yet reduce overall network cost. Proxim Wireless offer cost-efficient ways of extending the network to every corner of the city and provides the connectivity needed to eliminate the ever increasing cost of leasing networks.

Our product solutions allow right-sized yet scalable networks the progressive city. Put simply, when you need high density point-to-multipoint urban networks, and high bandwidth backhaul, no one delivers a more cost-effective, bandwidth efficient, or reliable solution.

"Proxim's equipment has stood the proof of time. The performance has always been reliable and consistent in any sort of weather and the performance/price ratio is unmatched. We are also pleased with the after sales technical support services and local support offered by Axiome Services. Based on the performance, we are looking to further upgrade our network with Proxim's latest generation products."

"Since deployment, more than 50% of the links have been installed among trees and foliage and have worked well, even exceeding our expectations."

"The new network has increased the department's productivity as well as their visibility in the city. Officers have access to a wealth of information spanning from license plates to real-time feeds of illegal smuggling, drug and arms trafficking happening in the city."

"Not only would digging up the streets of Bordrum compromise the historical integrity of the city, but it would have been completely cost prohibitive," said Faruk Meltem, IT Director of the Bordrum Police Department. "Given the extremely high number of tourists that visit Bordrum and the amount of activity in those areas, we needed a solution that could help our Police force more efficiently protect our people and assets, without breaking the bank."

"We chose Proxim's Tsunami systems because they simply outperformed," said Hojoh K.G, Head of IT Infrastructure, at TechSource. "The multipoint solutions demonstrated superior performance and deployment-simplicity over other technologies and products. Currently the deployment covers over 25% of the entire park area, and it only took us about 15 days for installation. Realizing the success of this project, we intend to scale further with Proxim's solutions for our future smart city projects."
